Chapter Four.

Matteo.

"You helped someone that was about to be food for those gangsters?"

"What's worse , this person was a fucking girl?"

Rocco said with that stupid grin on his face, if he wasn't so important to me I'd have wiped that grin of his fucking face.

I gave him a piercing glare, and that seemed to shut him the Fuck up.

I get why he's making such a fuss about me helping a girl, that's because I am a selfish bastard and I don't give a flying fuck about anyone especially women.

I only meet girls when I need to, nothing passes that except they want to die, so he's pretty knocked up that I'd stop to a help someone and a girl at that.

There was something so soft and innocent about her that made me want to protect her. *Cazzo* (Fuck) did I just say that?

Argh this is why you shouldn't go helping little girls who probably ran away from home.

One minute you're playing hero and the next minute you can't seem to get them out of your fucking head.

Make no mistake, I am not the hero of anybodys story, if anytime I am the villain.

I loosened my tie as I sat on the chair in my study.

"Did you get what i asked you?"

I asked Rocco with an edge in my voice to show him that I am serious.

"Ahh yes! I did, but I found something strange."

I frowned at the mention of something strange, I don't like things not going according to plan.

"What do you mean by you saw something strange?"

"Woah woah calm down Macho." Rocco raised his hands on mock surrender.

He's the only one who can talk to me like that, others would have been six feet under the ground by now.

"Don't test me Rocco."

I said making sure my voice had a drop of venom to it.

"Yes Boss." Rocco said in a serious tone now.

"I couldn't find anything on Vincenzo's Daughter."

My frown deepened. " What do you mean you can't find anything on her?"

" See... That's the problem, I've searched but I can't seem to find any fucking thing on her."

" Search harder Rocco."

I stare at him, my words final. He heaved a heavy sigh before making his way out of the office.

*Cazzo* (Fuck).

He really did hide information about her huh, it's no secret that the famous Mafia Lord Vicenzo Cassano has a daughter.

But it's funny how no one has ever seen her or heard any shit about her, it's as if she's existing but not really existing, I chuckled dryly... He's trying so hard to keep his daughter from the world.

I picked up my phone to make a call, it rang twice before the other person picked.

"yes boss."

"I need you to find something on Vicenzo's Daughter for me Alex, I don't care how you fucking do it, make sure you find everything you can about this person."

"Okay boss."

I heaved a heavy sigh,a finding information on her shouldn't be so hard.

I grit my teeth as the memories of that night came back rushing into my head.

I'll take everything from you Vince, every fucking thing you own.

Then you'll feel the pain I felt that night, I clench my hands almost drawing blood as the pain in my chest hits my with so much force.

I picked up my phone again to call Rocco, I need him here for something else.

"Yes Boss."

"Come back Rocco."

I hang up before he could even think to reply, my mind drift back to the girl in the dark alley, she's so oblivious.

She stared at me like I was a whole damn snack, I am sure she must have felt like she was being discreet about it, but it was so obvious.

"What did my eyes just witness?"

I hear Rocco's annoying voice, how did he get back so fast?

"Did I just see you smile?"

"Well not Smiling exactly but your lips quirked up."

*Stai Zitto Cazo Rocco* (Shut the Fuck up Rocco.

His smile dropped, and his face switched to a serious look.

Now that's more like it.

He walked to the chair opposite me before sitting down.

He looked like he had something to say, because his lips twitched and his eyebrows quirked up.

"Spit it out Rocco."

He sighed before starting to spit whatever he wanted to say.

"What about the proposal Vicenzo sent?"

I smirked at the memory of dear old Vince coming to my condo, and proposing to sell his daughter off to me in return for my loyalty and full support.

I guess being a world famous assassin in the Mafia world does have it's perks, every don in the fucking mafia world wants you on their team.

"What about it?"

He raised his eyebrows in a questioning way.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Are you going to accept it or not?"

I gave him a bored look, because this was the last thing I wanted to talk about right now.

"What do you think Rocco?"

Vicenzo is a bastard, he's willing to sell his own daughter for fucking alliance.

If that ain't greed I dont know what is.

"You need to accept it, this is him walking straight into our trap."

My lips quirked up at the thought of him making my work a whole lot easier.

"Send words to him that I accept his proposal."

" Yes boss. "

Rocco stood up to leave.

" Accept his party invitation too Rocco."

" Yes boss."

What a sneaky bastard thinking he just attained a great asset.

Vicenzo doesn't know that he just made the worst fucking mistake of his damn life.

Selling his daughter to me in marriage?

Tsk tsk.

This marriage would be plainly transactional, no time for fucking love and stupid feelings.

I'll make good use of Del Luca's little princess for them.

I smirked at the what was to come.

But what I didn't know was that the little mafia princess was going to turn my world around.

****************

I walked out of the mansion into the garage.

I sighed thinking about what car I should take to the damn party.

I picked the black BMW, I am a sucker for cars...

These babies give me a certain satisfaction.

I looked down at my watch, where the Fuck is Rocco? I'd really kill him one day.

I picked up my phone to call Rocco.

" You guys should follow me closely Rocco."

"Yes Boss."

My phone blinged as I entered the car, I checked to see that it was from Alex.

I opened the phone to see what he sent, and my eyes widened in shock, as i stared at the image staring right back at me.
